She resorted to staring at the ground, nothing but the sound of her breath leaving her mouth. Finally, the girl spoke up, pain flashing in her eyes for only a moment. "...I thought you were supposed to be smart, sir... You can figure it out on your own, can't you?" The two sentences were a challenge for him, and she silently prepared for the pain that was soon to come.
